[PATCH v2 0/2] Add Amlogic A9 I3C support

From: Junyi Zhao via B4 Relay

Date: Mon Nov 02 2026 - 06:07:22 EST


Amlogic A9 SoCs integrate the Silvaco I3C IP, but their peripheral
clock setup differs from the original implementation: the EE-domain
controller (amlogic,a9-i3c) takes two clocks, "pclk" and "fast_clk",
while the AO-domain controller (amlogic,a9-ao-i3c) exposes only
"pclk" and derives its bus clock from an internal divider inside the
controller's own register region.

This series consists of:

- Add a vendor_init callback for the clock setup and a
vendor_quirks field for AO-specific behaviour to the Silvaco I3C
master driver, and enable the existing Silvaco workaround quirks
for both Amlogic variants.
- Add the Amlogic compatibles and per-variant clock
constraints to the silvaco,i3c-master binding schema.

Verified on Amlogic A9 (BY401) with both EE and AO controller
instances. dt_binding_check and dtbs_check pass with this series.

Changes in v2:

- No need rework the Silvaco I3C driver.
- Based on vanilla driver, adapt A9 SoCS through callback
and quirks to handle the variant.
